If you clicked on this page, I guess you wanna know a little bit about me, right? Well, the most important thing to know is that I love Jesus with my whole heart - I know He is real, I have seen proof of Him in my life and in the lives of those around me, and knowing Him has changed me for the better, for the good (pardon the Wicked quote).
Next, I am desperately in love with my best friend and hubby, Warren, the most talented dad and businessman that I know - his sense of adventure far exceeds my comfort zones, which is precisely what I need. Because of him, I've zip lined over St Lucia, para sailed the coast of Mexico, ridden just about every roller coaster in North America, road tripped across the country in a convertible, and dropped everything to follow my dreams with his loving hand pushing me forward.
I have three amazing kids - two of which I got via the easy-bake method of adoption and one of which I had to make from scratch. When I fell in love with my husband I also fell in love with his two blond tots, Jason and Ben, and raised them as my own, which is exactly what they are. Now grown up, I still love them as my tow-headed boys, but I am so proud of the men they have become.
As for my made-from-scratch version, Sara Rose is the reason why Warren and I sleep so soundly every night from sheer exhaustion. She is a 4 year old ball of energy, bugs, and princess stickers, and she is the little shining jewel of our home (she even knighted all of us with her Disney Princesses on Ice magic wand).
Yes, I am an author and play-write, a worship leader, singer, and musician, and I find so much fulfillment in all of those pursuits - shaping young lives, revealing the giftings and talents in others, developing the potential that lies in those that I work with.... but who I truly am is found in the four paragraphs above. I don't especially love cooking and cleaning and laundry, but I very much live for taking care of and loving every member of my crazy, creative, and beautiful family.
